Step 1
In a bowl, mix the flour, yeast, and salt. Add the milk and knead until you get a soft dough. Then add the oil and knead it in well. Lightly grease the bowl, place the dough inside, brush a bit of oil on top, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rest for about an hour until it doubles in size.

Step 2
Heat some oil in a pan, then add ginger-garlic paste and chopped onions. Sauté for a minute until fragrant. Add the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, chili flakes, and cumin seeds, then stir everything together. Toss in the chopped capsicum, mix well, and finally stir in the mayonnaise. Turn off the heat and set the filling aside.

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and knead it for a minute. Divide it into small balls. On a floured surface, flatten one ball, place some chicken filling in the center, then brush water around the edges. Fold the dough over and pinch to seal, shaping it into a bun.
